Hi Jeff,

lintian uses whether a package build-depends against golang-go or
golang-any to determine whether this is "Go" package and, if so,
skips emission of the statically-linked-binary tag for the reasons
you state.

However, your package does not have such a build-depends, ie:

  https://notabug.org/themusicgod1/panicparse/src/master/debian/control#L9

(Is there a reason for this, etc. etc.)


Best wishes,
